Two children were killed and many others wounded in strikes on al Tayba village, according to numerous local sources.
At present it is unclear who was responsible for the incident; some sources have cited Russia and the regime, whilst others held the Coalition suspect.
A Tweet by @palestinedam said that “the death of a child and wounding of others” was a result of “aggression” from the “US-led Alliance aircraft”.
According to activists speaking to Smart news, the town – under the control of so-called Islamic State – suffered shelling on civilians homes. Smart alleged that this was carried out by the “International Coalition”.
Jisirtv said that 31 civilians were injured along with the death of two children – and blamed a “Russian bombardment”.
In their August 2020 civilian casualty report, the US-led Coalition assessed reports that they were responsible for civilian harm in this strike as “non-credible”, stating that no Coalition actions were conducted in the geographical area at that time.
